Story 1: https://thesuffolkjournal.com/42419/news/provost-julie-sandell-announces-retirement/ “Provost Julie Sandell announces retirement”

This story was very much short and to the point, including all of the necessary information to understand the story. The story explains that Sandell, the current provost of Suffolk University, is planning on retiring. Sandell is widely respected after starting at Suffolk in 2019, and leading the school through the COVID-19 crisis. The article includes a quote from the president of the university, building the writer’s credit. This information was obtained in an email by members of the journal, and I am curious as to who that email was intended for.

Story 2: https://thesuffolkjournal.com/40468/opinion/opinion-brandy-melville-one-size-fits-small/ “OPINION: Brandy Melville: One size fits (sm)all”

This is an opinion article describing the author’s opinion about the brand Brandy Melville, and how the store’s one-size-fits-all model does not work, in the author’s opinion. She uses her own personal experience of feeling jealous, as well as feeling like she needs to be able to fit into these clothes to feel beautiful. As a woman, this article is relatable, and I enjoyed it very much. The author received a few comments critiquing her writing, but I found myself disagreeing with both comments, as I thought her point was very well explained.
